"Imaginative, Intriguing, Prophetic. Hartnett at his best!" -Joe Edd Morris, author of The Prison

Escaping an assassination attempt, the underground figure El Buscador lands in Brooklyn's Gowanus, home of a toxic canal. His mortal adversary, developer Timothy Tolland, has proposed for Gowanus a magnificent canal district, featuring humpbacked bridges, majestic ramps, and inspired industrial architecture.

Distrustful of Tolland's intentions, El Buscador works to undermine the project. Soon, he understands that the only way to succeed is to become the thing that he hates. Complicating his maneuvers is the presence of an eight-foot sturgeon that has made the contaminated canal its new home. Nicknamed the Gwaken, the sturgeon draws great interest in Gowanus, adding to the carnival atmosphere of a community indulging in new-age Ganja desserts and frequenting a shady establishment that serves Brooklyn's worst pizza.

Secret meetings, floods, and the opening of long hidden channels lead to a spectacular climax along a canal whose toxicity can lead either to its resurrection or to its demise.

Hartnett, Michael: - Whenever he gets a free moment, Michael Hartnett wanders around in New York City ... of late along its most toxic canal. He is the author of the precursor to this novel, The Blue Rat, plus the novels Universal Remote, The Great SAT Swindle, Generation Dementia, and Fools in the Magic Kingdom.
